[QUOTE="Shoewrecky, post: 826808, member: 22350"]that has actually been in the talks for some time now. As a matter of fact I was listening to MPR yesterday and here in Ohio they were talking about dropping Saturday's Mail due to losing 1.3 Billion Dollars last year (please dont quote me on that but I am pretty sure that is what was stated). Here's an issue that I foresee: If on Salary then 1 of 2 things will happen still A. lay off people (hard to do especially if they are in a union) or B. reduce their pay. Let's say they work 40 hours a week now, and if they close Saturdays now they work 36 hours a week and get paid for 40...I doubt that would happen and if that is the case I would want their jobs :) On top of that they are only open till 5:30 Weekdays (most people work until 5) which may not allow their customers enough time to get to the P.O. to get their mail out. If they stay open later then they may have to start paying people to work overtime.. [IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3468/3271077366_e89e8f627c.jpg[/IMG] Picture shows rate increases since 97 to 09. That's my 2 cents...about its worth :) -Shrek[/QUOTE]
